Books by William Marsiglio

William Marsiglio challenges dads to become more health-conscious in how they live and raise their children. His conclusions are drawn not only from his revealing interviews with a diverse sample of dads and paediatric healthcare professionals, but also from his own unique personal experiences - as a teenage father who, thirty-one years later, became a later-life dad to a second son.

In Stepdads: Stories of Love, Hope, and Repair, William Marsiglio addresses provocative and timely questions facing stepfathers, single mothers, and remarried couples today. This book speaks to those who study and work with stepfamilies as well as persons who have ever thought about or lived in a stepfamily.

This accessibly written collaboration between a sociologist and a nursing teacher is a full account of how young men conceptualize fatherhood.
